My wife refused to buy a house for seven years and insisted we keep renting. I thought it was about money or timing, but when she finally told me the real reason, I was completely stunned.
Jane and I have been married for eight years, and for seven of them, we’ve been renting. Not because we had to.

We weren’t constantly moving. We weren’t saving for some big goal. We had the money, the credit, and the stability. Everything lined up.
But every time I brought up buying a house, she shut it down.
At first, I didn’t press. She was building her business, working long hours, chasing clients, and trying to stay afloat in a tough industry. I told myself we could wait. We were still young, after all.
